What is a Psalm Sound Bath?
A Psalm Sound Bath is a peaceful time of rest where the gentle tones of crystal singing bowls are paired with readings from the Psalms and quiet prayer. You simply lie down or recline comfortably, listen, and be still. Rooted in the Christian faith and open to everyone, it’s an invitation to slow down, release what you’ve been carrying, and rest in God’s presence.
Do I need to be a Christian to attend?
Not at all. Everyone is welcome. Each sound bath includes brief readings from the Psalms and a reflective time of prayer while listening to the tones of the singing bowls, offered as an invitation, never a requirement. Come as you are and simply rest.
What happens during a Christian sound bath?
You will lie down or recline comfortably while I play crystal singing bowls. Before the tones, I lead guests in body relaxation, then I read short passages from the Psalms, and allow quiet prayer and reflection as I play the bowls. Most guests describe feeling calm, rested, and peaceful. There is no right or wrong way to experience it.
Who are your group sound baths for?
Private groups of all kinds, including women’s ministry nights, church and small group retreats, birthdays, showers, and gatherings of friends. Groups of 4 or more can book, and larger groups are welcome.
Do you travel?
Yes! I bring the bowls to your home, church, or venue across Nassau County and Suffolk County, as far east as Riverhead. I can also host your group indoors or outdoors in Commack.
How do I book?
Email Sandra@HealingLongIsland.com or call/text (646) 425-1041 with your preferred date, group size, and location, and we will plan your sound bath together.
How do I prepare?
Simply dress comfortably and plan to be settled a few minutes before we begin, so everyone can relax into the experience together. If I’m coming to your home or venue, I’ll arrive early to set up the bowls, so all you need is a quiet space with room for your guests to sit or lie down. You may want to drink water before and after.
What should I bring?
For beach sound baths, bring a beach chair or blanket. For indoor sessions in Commack, yoga mats, pillows, bolsters, and blankets are provided. For outdoor sessions in Commack, zero gravity chairs are provided. Sleep masks are also provided for all sessions. For sessions at your location, we will talk through what is needed when you book.
Is a sound bath right for everyone?
Sound baths are gentle and relaxing, but they are not recommended for individuals with epilepsy or metal implants such as a pacemaker. If you are pregnant or have a health concern, please check with your doctor before attending.
How do I pay?
You can pay in person with cash, Venmo, or PayPal, or securely by credit card online.
Where is the Commack location and how do I find parking?
Commack sessions are held at my private wellness space. Upon booking, you will receive the full address, and a detailed email with photos will be sent 24 hours before your appointment to make arrival easy and stress-free.
A few helpful notes: the driveway sits directly next to a neighbor's driveway. Look for the blue house with the green mailbox. Parking is available at the end of the driveway, just past the house. Use the white gate on your right to enter the wellness space. You'll know you're in the right place.
Where are the Long Beach sound baths held?
Seasonal beach sound baths are held in Long Beach at the Lincoln Avenue Boardwalk entrance. Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for upcoming dates.
